<u>Question</u>:
Which value is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”?
-
years of decay
- quantity of energy
- number of stable atoms
- amount of material that has not decayed
<u>Answer</u>:
"Amount of material that has not decayed" being measured in the columns labelled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”
<u>Explanation</u>:
The table shown below having explains about the half life , the amount of sample in both fraction and percentage. The first column named half life elapsed tells us the the number of half life that that is completed. Half life is the time taken for an element to reduce or decay into half of its initial amount.
The fraction remaining column gives the amount of sample that is left behind after the half life particular number of half life has completed. similarly the percentage remaining column gives the amount of sample in percentage. For example, the 5th row tells us that after 4 half life is over of the sample remained. In percentage it is 6.25%
<span>Antibiotic resistance arises due to the evolution of the organisms they are designed to destroy. Subsequent generations of such organisms develop resistance to the antibiotic. Hospitals' overuse of antibiotics quickens the process, as does the administration of antibiotics to feedlot cattle, whose meat is consumed by people.</span>
Cancer is an abnormal and uncontrolled multiplication of cells.
<span>Cancer also involves abnormal cell growth with the potential to spread to other parts of the body via blood and to form metastasis. Cancer cells avoid apoptosis (programmed cell death), have the limitless number of cell divisions and promote blood vessel construction. There are more than 100 types of cancers that affect humans with different signs and symptoms and with many different causes. </span>
